Deep currents are caused mostly by?
The Coriolis Effect
The layer in which convection currents move?
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
How does a deep-ocean trench form?
They form when the oceanic crust goes under the Continental crust. The oceanic crust then forms the trenches through a process called subduction.
What is the difference between ocean current and rip current?
Ocean currents are currents that move across the globe from one temperature zone to another. Rip currents are localized currents caused by a combination of tides and waves agains the shore line where the water is shallow.
What are large streams of surface sea water called?
IT'S called ocean currents or just called currents.
How are deep ocean currents form?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
When does a deep current form?
Deep currents form when salinity increases.
How deep currents form and move in the ocean?
deep ocean currents form by the differences in the density of ocean water
Where do deep currents flow along in the ocean?
deep ocean currents form by the differences in the density of ocean water
Compare the causes and effects of deep currents and surface currents?
deep currents form when dense water neat the poles sinks and flows slowly along the ocea floor
Temperature salinity and density are factors that form?
Deep Currents.
What are the three factors that from deep currents?
The three factors that help form deep currents are ...density,salinity,and tempature.
What the surface currents form what happens to the deep ocean currents?
of course i can answer this question... what am i stupid? haha yeah i have no idea
Are thermohaline currents surface or deep water currents?
deepwater currents
What form deep currents?
i know its the coriolis affect thats all i know
How does the temperature affect the formation of deep currents?
Deep currents form where the density of ocean water increase so, water density depends on temperature and salinity. I hope I helped you =)
Are deep currents controlled by are deep currents controlled by wind?
NO
